    i'm really confused now, is it 3 suncare items at £5.50 and pay 50p with voucher or is it 2 suncare and 1 no7 make up at £5.50 and pay 50p with voucher, am heading off to boots and don't want to mess up thanks.

    Yeah sometimes i dream iam being escorted off the premises by boots security!!!lol

    If that happened imagine how many points you would get awarded by customer services for hurt feelings/upset etc.All us bootsers should get jobs there as we have alot more knowledge of whats going on then the current staff.I would be such a patient smiling happy Sa!
    I went shopping the day we has gale force winds and when it got very bad i lurked around in boots for a while until it was safe to go out-my reason for that was if we have to stay the night at least i'll be happy

    On another note, am I the only one dreaming about Boots???? I had some weird dreams last night that included No7 suncream and 50p sanitary towels :confused: . Where I got the towels from I have no idea.

    Oh well, off to Boots now :j

    That is so funny......!!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Its like an addiction isnt it?? I keep thinking, thats it, I've had enough of bootsing, and then I suddenly need to have just one more fix!!!!

    Can we set up some sort of support group on here for us Boots addicts??!! ;) :rotfl: :rotfl: :wall: :wall: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure!!

    Been a skinflint on extended maternity leave I've been saving my luncheon vouchers from an online survey company to buy baby food with at boots for the first time (Honest I do feed her at other times to not only when I have vouchers - I have a 24lb 11 month old who was premie and 4lb at birth :D ).

    I'm not sure many people use LV at Boots so I thought that I would point out that when I used mine today I split them into £5 groups and bought my baby food in as close to £5 batches as I could get it..... Hipp is on 4 for 3 as well. I qualified for the £5 off number 7 voucher doing it this was for each transaction and now I'm over run :rolleyes: .

    SO TO CUT MY MESSAGE SHORT IF YOU USE LV TO PAY FOR THINGS IN BOOTS I THINK YOU STILL QUALIFY FOR THE £5 VOUCHERS????

    PS
    I'm thinking of running an adopt a grandma scheme because my "mystery parcels" have arrived from boots and are full of lavendar gift sets and L'aimt perfume sets....... Did get 12 boxes of chocolates though which is bad news as I am on the special K diet! ;)

    They are mystery parcels because I clicked on everything in sight. Now stuck because everyone knows I went mad on boots and they know what they are getting for birthdays for a long while to come

    I was thinking this about the advantage card and not using it but asking them to put the points on the receipt to get added later - iyswim.

    Although really, are we doing anything wrong???? I can't decide if we are or not? We are paying the price the staff ask us for so what you reckon?? Are we being naughty?

    No we are not doing anything wrong - I just didn't want to highlight the fact I was taking advantage of the 6 4 1 to Boots by using my card for those transactions and only lost 50pts. Will be going back later to hopefully get some more - as have 2 sisters living in Oz so as my daughter is flying down there next week - intend sending enough to keep 2 sisters and 4 nieces screened for the summer.

    They love No 7 stuff! This glitch couldn't have been timed better.

    I don't think we're being naughty................. cheeky maybe.....!!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:

    But, at the end of the day, as I said to an SA the other day, I can't physically make the cashier put things through the till, and I can't physically make the offers kick in, so its Boots !!!!-up, and I'm just making the most of it....... :rotfl: :rotfl:

    And I have to say thank you to all you fellow Bootsers on here, for giving me the confidence from reading your experiences, to go in, armed and ready to stand my ground if they start humming and aahhing......!!!! I've never been so assertive!!!! :D

    Yea, it really is not our fault and they do keep handing out the vouchers - very rude not to accept we may end up offending them which we really do not want to do.
    What am I doing on here, I should be shopping!!!!

    I didn't think you would be allowed to pay with points after using the no7 voucher? :confused:
